RAKSHASA-class Mjolnir is a variant of the MJOLNIR Powered Assault Armor [3]manufactured by Lethbridge Industrial.[1][2]

Overview

Design details

The Rakshasa is versatile, easy to maintain, and comfortable to wear for extended periods of time. Critical advantages for long-duration remote operations in hostile environments. Another key to its success are multiple levels of subsystem redundancy and an integral self-repair system.[1][2] Rakshasa is also able to be equipped, or adapted to use several attachments or gear.[3]

Development history

Developed by Lethbridge Industrial, the Rakshasa armor was battle-tested by Delta-6 hunter-killer teams and disruption operatives who ranged far into the former Covenant core worlds.[1]

Usage

During the armors service, it began to represent lived history, where the armor of one Spartan wearing Rakshasa may carry on to another.[4]

Rakshasa was worn by Spartan-IV's Sigrid Eklund and Hieu Dinh,[5] where Eklund documented in her field notes several experiences on equipment usable on Rakshasa.[4]

In-game information

The Rakshasa armor core is unlockable after attaining level 6 on the free Battle Pass in Season 02: Lone Wolves, the second season of Halo Infinite multiplayer. With the release of the December update during Halo Infinite's Winter Update, the Rakshasa core was granted to all players for free.[6]
